Age of Nemesis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Listen to me, heed my plea
Forget 'bout your bloody dream
There's no one else left for me
N' no one else you can believe
If you lock the door now - the light will find you here
If you leave this path now - you'll come on home to me
Listen now to your mother
Let's defeat death together!
If you lock the door now - the light will find you here
If you leave this path now - you'll come on home to me
Go and lock the door now - n' the light will find you here
Go and leave this path now - n' you'll come on home to me
...Everything begins to shudder,
icy horror devastates with doom
Objects exploding everywhere,
and the wind howls through the room...
[BOY:]
I think I can hear you, but I can't see you Mother
Revenge has made me completely blind
But in my heart I feel a strange and warmish light
Maybe you could be my sight!
[MOMMY:]
Fly away...
Fly away - like clouds above the waves!
******
Maybe we should regard - the rhythm of the past
December's door's a lark - forget it, there's no path
It's locked and bolted fast - a mem'ry of the past
No longer is it harsh - It's nothing but a laugh!
Now the door is bolted fast -
FOREVER!!
FOREVER!!
FOREVER!!
The song "Breaking Away" by Age of Nemesis tells a story about a young boy who has a dream and aspirations that his mother does not support. She tries to convince him to abandon his dreams and stay with her. In the lyrics, the mother is pleading with her son to give up his dreams and join her in defeating death. The mother is portrayed as a controlling and manipulative figure who doesn't want her son to leave her side. She promises him that if he stays with her, he will be safe from harm. The son, on the other hand, is conflicted between his dreams and his love for his mother. He is not sure if he should stay with her or follow his heart.
The lyrics take a dramatic turn towards the end, where the scene is set as a storm with objects exploding everywhere, and the wind howls through the room. The boy is now blind due to revenge, and he tries to find comfort in his mother's voice. This section of the lyrics suggests that revenge has blinded the boy and that he's looking for guidance from his mother.
In conclusion, the song "Breaking Away" portrays the struggle between individuality and conformity. The lyrics reveal the turmoil that a young boy goes through when he is manipulated and controlled by his mother, who does not support his dreams.

Listen to me, heed my plea
Pay attention to my words and follow my advice
Forget 'bout your bloody dream
Give up on your aspirations
There's no one else left for me
I have no one else in my life except you
N' no one else you can believe
There is no one else who you can trust
If you lock the door now - the light will find you here
If you stop wandering and stay put, you will find what you are seeking
If you leave this path now - you'll come on home to me
If you abandon your dreams, you will return to me
Listen now to your mother
Take heed of your parent's words
Let's defeat death together!
We can conquer our fear of mortality as a team
Go and lock the door now - n' the light will find you here
Seize the opportunity and stay put, and you will find what you are seeking
Go and leave this path now - n' you'll come on home to me
Give up on your aspirations and come back to me
Everything begins to shudder, icy horror devastates with doom
Things start falling apart and overwhelming fear sets in
Objects exploding everywhere, and the wind howls through the room
Things get crazy and chaotic, and nature itself seems to be in turmoil
I think I can hear you, but I can't see you Mother
I am lost and confused
Revenge has made me completely blind
My anger is clouding my judgment
But in my heart I feel a strange and warmish light
Despite my anger, I still have hope in my heart
Maybe you could be my sight!
Perhaps my mother can guide me out of my anger
Fly away... Fly away - like clouds above the waves!
Escape from your problems like clouds floating above the sea
Maybe we should regard - the rhythm of the past
We should learn from the past and use that to guide us
December's door's a lark - forget it, there's no path
Don't dwell on the past, it won't lead you anywhere
It's locked and bolted fast - a mem'ry of the past
The past is behind locked doors and is now only a memory
No longer is it harsh - It's nothing but a laugh!
The past isn't as bad as it once seemed, it's now just a distant memory
Now the door is bolted fast - FOREVER!! FOREVER!! FOREVER!!
The past is gone and won't be returning, so don't hold onto it
